From the headline it sounds like these will be used against other cops?

Can't wait to see the police rocking these during wellness checks.

Cops want to make sure their no-knock murder raids ensure the increasingly-armed american populace can't actually threaten them when they claim they "feared for their life".

A cop in a bulletproof suit wouldn’t need to carry a gun unless they plan on killing someone who’s not a threat to them.
